Cactus is always a go to space spot for me to eat. The wait staff is very knowledgeable and not only helps navigate safe items, but also is instructed to notate on the order about the allergies. Very trustworthy and love that even have seasonal favorites that are gluten free!
I’m asking the waiter about cross contamination, he was very calm and knowledgeable as if he is asked all the time about it. I got the ancho tacos which were good. I had a little bit of an upset stomach but I don’t think it was gluten but maybe beware of eating the beans??
Great option for food in downtown Kirkland if you are celiac. I’m very sensitive and this is one of the few places in the area I feel confident eating at and knowing I will not get sick. They have a fairly extensive gf menu and in my experience the servers are very knowledgeable. Unfortunately you will need to stay away from the chips as they are cooked in oil shared with other items containing gluten. I typically get the tacos (I’ve had all the ones on the gf menu) or the chop chop salad. Just tell your server you are gf and they are happy to accommodate.
Wow, awesome experience and customer service. Make sure you go online and add yourself to waitlist! Didnt have you long a wait, and good that you can walk around the general Bellevue Square area. The entrance is a little hard to find. Lol, but worht the wait. Great ambience plenty of GF options. The food is excellent. It was our first time, and the server got us a free dessert which was a nice welcome surprise : - ) to end the meal.
I ordered takeout and the host who took my order was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. She was patient and answered all my questions. They have a separate GF menu (you can filter their online menu by dietary restriction). She gave me a heads up not to get the chips with the guacamole but that I could order a side of tortillas and assured me the kitchen would change gloves and clean the grill, though I got the green enchiladas, so that wasn’t an issue. Very delicious, clearly marked “celiac” on my meal and no issues after eating it. Great experience and will absolutely return.
This was incredible. The service was great, speedy food, great quality and absolutely delicious with a fair amount of options. We were thrilled and no reactions made this extra great. I intend to return.
Love Cactus. Their corn tortillas are the best every. Lots of option on the gluten free menu and staff is very knowledgeable. Don't be afraid to ask about items on the fresh sheet. My faves are the brisket tacos dinner and steak salad. Highly recommend!
Excellent variety of food and drinks on the gluten free menu! The fajitas and margaritas are great! A little disappointing there are no gluten free chips, but the corn tortillas they give you instead are delicious. I have celiac & was comfortable eating there.
Stopped in for lunch and very pleased. Full GF menu, knowledgeable wait staff was very friendly and accommodating. Food was delicious. Will be back with the family for supper.
Wonderful, Gluten free menu. *Note: chips are fried in a shared kitchen fryer; thus, steer clear of chips to avoid cross contamination with gluten.
The server noticed I was looking at the GF menu and asked if I was celiac or just guten intolerant. I told him I was celiac and he immediately pointed out that the chips on the table were from a shared frier, and then bought me corn tortilla and my own salsa to avoid cross-contamination. Wow! I have never had a server be so proactive.
